If a z-enabled Hosted Feature Service exists in ArcGIS Online then a new, z-enabled Hosted Feature Service can be created from the existing layer. Uploading a FGDB with z-values from the My Content page also creates a Hosted Feature Service with z-values.&nbsp;</P><P></P><P>It gets a little bit trickier when adding records from a CSV because z-value is stored as part of the feature geometry as opposed to in an attribute field.&nbsp;</P><P></P><P>An alternative that might work for your&nbsp;client:</P><P></P><UL><LI>Only once, you publish a z-enabled, empty Hosted Feature Service from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online.</LI><LI>Ensure that the schema matches the CSV's schema.&nbsp;</LI><LI>From the Item Details page, the client can update &gt; Append &gt; add the CSV Data to the z-enabled Hosted Feature Service.&nbsp;</LI><LI>On your end from ArcGIS Pro, you would need to consume the service and&nbsp;use the&nbsp;<A class="link-titled" href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/3d-analyst/add-z-information.htm" title="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/3d-analyst/add-z-information.htm">Add Z Information—Help | ArcGIS Desktop</A>&nbsp;GP tool&nbsp;to set the z values from the attribute values.&nbsp;</LI></UL><P></P><P>I hope that helps. I also recommend logging this as an idea in&nbsp;<A href="https://community.esri.com/space/2167">ArcGIS Ideas</A>&nbsp;and providing the use case above.&nbsp;</P><P></P><P>Thanks,</P><P></P><P>-Peter</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 20 Dec 2019 22:48:33 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/create-z-value-enabled-hosted-feature-class/m-p/715798#M35495 Anonymous User 2019-12-20T22:48:33Z
